Policies:

Meet and Greet:  This meeting is the first opportunity for you and your pets to meet your new pet sitter.  Your pets can begin to familiarize themselves with your sitter. This is the clients opportunity to see how the person they are entrusting with the care of interacts with them. During this time, the Client Profile, Pet Profile Service Agreement, and Cancellation Policy will be reviewed. It is important that you fill your online profile completely prior to the meeting.  This meeting is complimentary. If a second meeting is requested, a $20.00 fee will be charged.

Review of Routine:  Your pet sitter will want to know all about your pets routine such as when and where they eat, sleep, and what they like to do for fun, as well as walking schedules.  It is great to have this discussion in your home because it allows the client to show the pet sitter where things are and what the routine looks like.

Client Portal: Please make sure that you enter thorough notes and information in your online account.  We refer to your online account while pet sitting for you.  We need your contact information to be correct, veterinary contact info and vaccination dates, and instructions to care for your home and pets.  The client portal is a secure site.  You can also pay online, check your schedule, request service and cancel visits in the client portal.

Pet Safety:  We will not allow any dogs to remain outside in a kennel, off leash or unattended in fenced in area, or electric fence area.

Pets, especially puppies, will not be left on crates with collars, harnesses or leashes attached, as this poses a serious potential for injury.

Pets must have access to water at all times. Withholding water is not a way to house train. It is neglectful as water is required for proper hydration.  Just as you need to stay hydrated, so do your pets. 

We are a cruelty free pet sitting company, we do not, and will not use any choke, prong or  pinch collars. These types of devices can potentially be very harmful to dogs. 

All doors to the home will be locked when the dog walker or pet sitter leaves the home.
